"over 600", considering how much shelf space it would take, to store 600+ movies in their covers; a redbox is probably a very space efficient way to store and resource optical media.

yeah I'd love to get my hands on one of these and just keep it in the Livingroom then. Put all the blurays in it. Let people borrow disks...

would be a cool project to replace their (more than likely) proprietary GUI with a custom one... I have RFID cards on hand. Could be cool to just assign cards to friends and let them come over and "rent" movies.

Make a "secret" menu for "renting" out Linux install disks to myself too. Forces me to keep shit organized.
